Xcode 27 Skills

A collection of Agent Skills exported from Xcode 27. These skills give AI coding agents (Claude Code, etc.) authoritative, up-to-date guidance for building Apple platform apps — covering SwiftUI, UIKit modernization, Swift Testing, C bounds-safety, Xcode security hardening, and on-device verification.

Skills

Skill Purpose
swiftui-specialist Best practices and idiomatic patterns for SwiftUI — structure, data flow, environment, modifiers, localization, animations, ForEach, and soft-deprecated APIs.
swiftui-whats-new-27 New SwiftUI APIs, behaviors, and deprecations in the 2027 OS releases (iOS/macOS/watchOS/tvOS/visionOS 27) — @State macro, reorderable, swipe actions, toolbar overflow, AsyncImage, item bindings, document-based apps.
uikit-app-modernization Modernize UIKit apps for multi-window environments — replace legacy shared-state APIs, migrate to scene lifecycle, support dynamic scene sizing.
test-modernizer Modernize test suites to use modern Swift Testing features or migrate from XCTest.
c-bounds-safety Guide for the C -fbounds-safety language extension — language model, pointer annotations, adoption, build settings, and runtime debugging.
audit-xcode-security-settings Audit and progressively enable security-oriented Xcode build settings — compiler warnings, static analyzer checkers, and Enhanced Security hardening.
device-interaction Verify iOS app behavior on device or simulator via screenshots, UI hierarchy, and touch interactions.

Installation

Each top-level directory in this repo is a self-contained skill. Pick whichever method fits your agent.

Option 1 — npx skills (universal, recommended)

The skills CLI auto-detects your agent (Claude Code, Codex, etc.) and installs into it. Point it at this repo with the owner/repo shorthand:

# Pick interactively from the list of skills:
npx skills add superagents-lab/xcode27-skills

# Install one specific skill:
npx skills add superagents-lab/xcode27-skills --skill swiftui-specialist

# Install all seven:
npx skills add superagents-lab/xcode27-skills --skill '*'

Useful flags: --list to preview the skills without installing, -g/--global to install at the user level instead of the current project, and --copy to copy files instead of symlinking. Swap in any skill name from the table above.

Requires Node. If npx is missing, install it first: brew install node.

Option 2 — Manual install (any agent)

A skill is just a directory containing a SKILL.md, so any agent that supports the Agent Skills format can use it — clone the repo and copy the skill directories into wherever your agent looks for skills.

git clone https://github.com/superagents-lab/xcode27-skills.git
